From the summer of 1940, the G7 torpedo was considered usable in war and was fully used again from 1941.
I tried doing this during the Coastal Waters Campaign (the first one) and the in the summer of 1940, during the Happy Times Campaign (the second one). I have modded the game to allow me to use the TIII torpedoes early (I am not a hardcore SH5 player I know). The waves were not high, with wind speeds less than 6 m/s.

But since you are asking about the period when I was attempting to use the magnetic detonator, is it correct to assume that TDW's patches, which are a part of TWoS of course, fixing the magnetic detonators only do so during a specific period of the war?
